I am so sorry for your loss. I did not get to spend much time with Mrs Van Brunt after we moved in other than seeing her when she came into the Doctor's office I work at. My son would love to go over to her house when we got home from work and give her the "special flowers" he picked. She was a wonderful lady. May God Bless you and keep you during this sad time.
Jennifer Teague - Neighbor
For Karla and Gerald. I am truly sorry for your loss. I have been keeping watch for information on you and/or your family since we moved to Springdale. I'm sorry it took a funeral to find you. My mother died last year and I still miss her. May you find comfort in your family and my prayers will be with you.
Lucinda (barkley)rutledge - One Of Karla's Bridesmaids
I was sorry to hear about Alta. Beverley and I were good friends and cheerleaders in school. Because my mom worked an early morning job, I remember spending many nights at Bev's house, after the game. We would snuggle down in a bed that was loaded with quilts that looked homey and smelled great. She always treated me like a daughter, not a guest. I was sorry to hear of her passing and my mom sends her condolences too!.
